Question Period Note: Public Services and Procurement Canada Government Transformation

The Government is pursuing enhanced productivity through the large-scale deployment of artificial intelligence (AI). Greater effectiveness and efficiency in government processes will also lead to improvements in service delivery for Canadians.

• The government is embarking on an ambitious whole-of-government transformation to build a more agile and productive public service, breaking down organizational silos and implementing horizontal reforms to modernize business processes and technology
  • Administrative systems are ideal for transformational, government-wide approaches as they bring together components common to all departments
  • For example, Public Services and Procurement Canada is working on the Government of Canada's Artificial Intelligence Language Centre, an enterprise-grade language self-service tool powered by artificial intelligence designed to improve translation efficiency and protect linguistic data

Public Services and Procurement Canada and Shared Services Canada leverage their legislative powers to deliver innovative services that make government more efficient and cost-effective. These initiatives support modernization, encourage the responsible use of artificial intelligence and help reduce expenditures, allowing Canadians to invest more in the economy.

As a common service organization, Public Services and Procurement Canada provides a suite of back-office services that support operational efficiency and organizational transformation across the Government of Canada.
